WATCH: Conor McGregor has intense sparring session with former world champion boxer in new documentary series

The Notorious believes Floyd Mayweather fight is still possible

Conor McGregor’s got his mind on his money and his money on his mind.

The Notorious launched the first installment of his new “docu-style” series ‘This is The Mac Life’ in which he showcases the “intense training, the luxuries, the sacrifice, the promotion and this entire Mac lifestyle.’

Episode one features the UFC featherweight champion engaging in some sparring with former IBO and IBF welterweight champion Chris van Heerden.

While one would assume this is part of his fight camp for his welterweight do-over against the only man to defeat him inside the UFC’s Octagon, Nate Diaz, scheduled to headline UFC 202, McGregor’s Facebook post promoting the series suggests it was also preparation for a “possible future Floyd Mayweather fight”.

This new series will be showcased on the Dubliner’s news channel TheMacLife.com, which on first glance appears to be very similar to the site associated with arguably the greatest lightweight fighter ever, BJ Penn.
